Existing parallel association rule mining algorithms suffer from many problems when mining massive transactional datasets. One major problem is that most of the parallel algorithms for a shared nothing environment are Apriori-based algorithms. Apriori-based algorithms are proven to be not scalable due to many reasons, mainly: (1) the repetitive I/O disk scans, (2) the huge computation and communication involved during the candidacy generation.This paper proposes a new disk-based parallel association rule mining algorithm called Inverted Matrix, which achieves its efficiency by applying three new ideas. First, transactional data is converted into a new database layout called Inverted Matrix that prevents multiple scanning of the database during the mining phase, in which finding globally frequent patterns could be achieved in less than a full scan with random access. This data structure is replicated among the parallel nodes. Second, for each frequent item assigned to a parallel node, a relatively small independent tree is built summarizing co-occurrences. Finally, a simple and non-recursive mining process reduces the memory requirements as minimum candidacy generation and counting is needed, and no communication between nodes is required to generate all globally frequent patterns.
